A single faecal bile acid stool test demonstrates potential efficacy in replacing SeHCAT testing for bile acid diarrhoea in selected patients
Abstract This study examines the validity of measuring faecal bile acids (FBA) in a single stool sample as a diagnostic tool for bile acid diarrhoea (BAD) by direct comparison to the 75selenium-homotaurocholic acid (SeHCAT) scan. A prospective observational study was undertaken. Patients with chroni...
